Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Batmaa-- I mean, Green Arrooow.

Green Arrow, the Emerald Archer, is a badass street-level vigilante whose skills and determination, combined with the finest in high-tech medieval weaponry that money can buy, mixes it up with thugs and cosmic-level villains alike. The character and his personality are a large part of what make the series so compelling, his political struggles for social justice outside the realm of regular crime-fighting, and dealing with his own flaws as a person.

Identity Crisis is a very strong story that puts Green Arrow in a central role, demonstrating his importance and his position in the superhero community as the Justice League attempts to solve the murder of one of their own.
